Where have 8 years gone?? It doesn't seem that long ago that it was a beautiful Fall day in MN and surrounded by friends and family we committed to each other for eternity. Yet life keeps moving us forward and we've got to share in a lot of great experiences together and we have many more to come!!
We celebrated with two date nights (thanks Papa John and Grandma Pauline for watching T). The first date night was at an Italian restaurant - Sassi - in Troon (North Scottsdale) where we could see the sunset behind Pinnacle Peak. The weather was perfect - somewhat cool for a change - so we sat outside and had a nice conversation and meal.
Even though Sassi gave us complimentary cannoli's for a special anniversary dessert we headed down the street to Rare Earth Wine Bar where Brian discovered a new wine that he loves and Sara enjoyed a nice big piece of turtle cheesecake. Yes, the baby needed two different desserts!
On Friday evening we headed to Modern Steak in Fashion Square. As everyone knows, Brian and Sara are quite meat and potato people so this meal really hit the spot. We enjoyed a shrimp appetizer, steak, lobster, fingerling potatoes, mascarpone cream corn and of course a fabulous chocolate dessert with a side of red velvet ice cream. Or so they said it was....didn't taste exactly like red velvet to the red velvet aficionado but it was still yummy!
After that we headed to a nearby casino to check it out and listen to the dueling pianos. And good thing we did because we learned that our favorite band 'Cowboy Mouth' is playing in a few weeks. So we'll be headed out to see them with our friends Brian and Cassie soon! Yay! It's only fair since Trevor heard them in 'utero' that baby sister would too :)
One funny comment from Trevor while with his Grandparents at dinner...a couple dining nearby asked Trevor where his parents were and he said 'they went to get married'! Where does he get this stuff? He's just too cute!
